How do JAGUAR LAND ROVER (JLR) stay at the top of their game in today’s competitive environment?
Joy Bachelor of Britain’s Jaguar Land Rover will give us a sneak peek into what really happens behind the scenes. Learn how their 'technical specialist' bridges the divides to turn a great concept into a profitable product. Joy will discuss how:

• Successful innovation can be achieved in difficult, dynamic environments
• You can manage complexity, collaboration and creativity simultaneously
• JLR turns multiple sources of data and information into vital organizational knowledge
• To meet the triple challenge of speed, quality and profitability in new product introduction

Experiences from JLR’s impressive turnaround will provide significant insights into how they became Tata’s star brands. “Initially bailed out by India’s Tata Motors for their poor sales and financial performance, JLR are now the company’s crown jewels.”  

This session will provide you with clear and replicable lessons to help you drive your innovations to market successfully from concept to launch. Organizational/technical challenges, supply chain issues and strategic innovation and knowledge management approaches will be addressed. You will discover how Jaguar Land Rover became a world-class, highly profitable and highly innovative business.
